Design of Deployment Strategies to Monitor the Movement of Animals with Passive Electronic Devices

open access: yesSensors, 2021
Current animal monitoring systems have improved our knowledge of quantitative animal ecology. There are many electronic tracking technologies such as VHF/UHF telemetry, light-level geolocation, ARGOS satellite telemetry and GPS tracking.

Ten grams and 13,000 km on the wing – route choice in willow warblers Phylloscopus trochilus yakutensis migrating from Far East Russia to East Africa

open access: yesMovement Ecology, 2018
Background High-latitude bird migration has evolved after the last glaciation, in less than 10,000–15,000 years. Migrating songbirds rely on an endogenous migratory program, encoding timing, fueling, and routes, but it is still unknown which compass ...

Suite of simple metrics reveals common movement syndromes across vertebrate taxa [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
ecause empirical studies of animal movement are most-often site- and species-specific, we lack understanding of the level of consistency in movement patterns across diverse taxa, as well as a framework for quantitatively classifying movement patterns. We

An integrated animal tracking technology combining a GPS tracking system with a UAV

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Global Position System (GPS) tags are widely used in animal tracking to address far‐ranging ecological, behavioural and conservation‐related questions.

A new direction for differentiating animal activity based on measuring angular velocity about the yaw axis

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
The use of animal‐attached data loggers to quantify animal movement has increased in popularity and application in recent years. High‐resolution tri‐axial acceleration and magnetometry measurements have been fundamental in elucidating fine‐scale animal ...

Changes in seed dispersal processes and the potential for between-patch connectivity for an arid land daisy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Dispersal is a major and critical process in population biology that has been particularly challenging to study. Animals can have major roles in seed dispersal even in species that do not appear specifically adapted to animal-aided dispersal.

Using accelerometer, high sample rate GPS and magnetometer data to develop a cattle movement and behaviour model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The study described in this paper developed a model of animal movement, which explicitly recognised each individual as the central unit of measure. The model was developed by learning from a real dataset that measured and calculated, for individual cows ...

Does migratory distance affect fuelling in a medium-distance passerine migrant?: results from direct and step-wise simulated magnetic displacements

open access: yesBiology Open, 2016
In birds, fat accumulation before and during migration has been shown to be endogenously controlled and tuned by, among other factors, the Earth's magnetic field.

Forecasting wildlife movement with spatial capture–recapture

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Wildlife movement is an important process affecting species population biology and community interactions in myriad ways. Studies of wildlife movement have focused on retrospectively estimating movements of small numbers of individuals by outfitting them

Animal Movement Strategies

open access: yes, 2022
Movement is a fundamental process in the natural world, and active movement in response to environmental drivers is key to animal ecology. The animal tracking revolution has led to at least two distinct challenges in the field of movement ecology. The first is how to gain ecologically meaningful insights into the proximate, mechanistic drivers of ...
